If more is needed from imagery beyond the 3 band tile service Georgia Mountains Regional Commission is reaching out to you today to gauge your interest in participating in a cooperative Aerial Photography/LiDAR flight.  This flight will take place in conjunction with the USGS 3DEP LiDAR flight.  USGS chose the same vendor to fly the LiDAR project as the GMRC Council approved to fly our 2018 Aerial Photography Project. 
Attached to this is a map identifying the counties that will have QL2 LiDAR (digital elevation) acquired for the USGS project.  If your County is considering an aerial photography flight, GMRC can get pricing for either 3” or 6” pixel resolution photography.  This photography will be flown to the same specifications as our 2018 project.  Also, if your County is not included in the USGS project and you are in need of LiDAR, GMRC can get pricing for that project as well.
If interested in participating, please fill out the attached Letter of Interest and return to me via by September 15. Within the please indicate what you require a quotation for.  I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Faith
